And as for anyone thinking about doing this, I've never used a solder, but after watching some how to's on youtube and after picking up some supplies at Radio Shack I got it fixed in a few hours. Thanks again for the info. I've avoided having to replace my monitor and it cost me less than $30.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15371388218868568988noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2706167928714146937.post-21117127493404010802013-01-22T20:32:27.890-05:002013-01-22T20:32:27.890-05:00I had the same problem with a HP vs19b monitor.

Monitor works again for many months. Thank you.<br /><br />Today tried to repair a vs19b monitor from a friend. Had to replace 3 suspectable elco´s (C822, 823 and 824). After replacing, the blue power led stays on, instead of blinking. But the screen only comes on for 2 seconds and goes then black. This effect repeats when switching the monitor off and ON again.

But this fix worked perfectly. Only two of the 3 caps showed signs of oozing but at only $1.69 each at Radio Shack I replaced all 3. After all, labor cost is far greater than parts cost. For about 5 bucks, my monitor now works. Solder wick (braid) works best for removing bad caps. I've got over 50 years experience repairing circuit boards but still learned something new here. I hope many of the grateful respondents like myself donate 10, 15 or 25 dollars to demonstrate their gratitude.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2706167928714146937.post-50247624196252275762012-03-31T16:22:33.082-04:002012-03-31T16:22:33.082-04:00My monitor was just sitting in the corner, it had ...My monitor was just sitting in the corner, it had no power at all. So I used an other one and speakers that I had laying around. I tried to find a new one from HP and they told me they didn't make them anymore. Everyone I called tried to sell me a new computer. Then I read your Blogger. I called Radio Shack in Royal Palm Beach and asked them if they had the caps I needed. Brandon who answered the phone, told me he didn't have the 10V, but he did have 30V caps. When I got there he offered to put them in for me at a charge of $15. He did the whole thing in 2 hours. Today I pluged it in and it's working GREAT! By the way I gave Brandon (a hard working young man working his way through collage) more than he asked for because he was so good to me. However I would have never known, had I not found this site.

Research says that the low ESR may prevent the caps from creating too much internal heat, thereby shortening their lifespan -- so if a plane jane RS part made it 3 years, ESR does not seem too critical. <br /><br />I went with Digi-Key because they offer 1st Class postage on small orders. Found a Panasonic 1000uF that is the same size (10mm dia x 16mm H), rated for 16V, ripple current of 1.79A, lifetime 8000 hours at 105C. Other options had ripple currents as low as 0.56A, and lifetimes as low as 1000 hours at 105C or 2000 hours at 85C. <br /><br />Unless HP really dropped the ball and used caps rated for the wrong voltage (where 35V covers it, but 16V won't), this Digi-Key part will likely outlast the un-spec'd Radio Shack part by a good margin.<br /><br />Part is P14398-ND and delivered price looks to be about $5 for 3 of them. :) <br /><br />I'll follow-up when they are installed.TorqueMasternoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2706167928714146937.post-56842393585778642492011-03-27T22:20:54.934-04:002011-03-27T22:20:54.934-04:00@TorqueMaster -

I have not had any problems with any of the monitors I've repaired, and they have all been done with Radio Shack capacitors. There has been some discussion amongst these comments about using low-ESR capacitors. I used what was readily available (RadioShack), but if you're able to wait and want to spend a little more, it looks like commenter 'James' found some Nippon KZE low ESR capacitors on ebay for ~$5. I've never had one of my RadioShack ones fail though, so I can't really compare the standard caps to the low ESR caps.MD Schmidthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16928150728398174641noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2706167928714146937.post-7692140533165573702011-03-27T21:14:29.533-04:002011-03-27T21:14:29.533-04:00Mr. Schmidt,

Are they truly el-cheapo parts that fail quickly? Are Radio Shack parts any better? Are the originals rated for too low of a voltage or temperature? I see the Radio Shack replacements are rated 85C, whereas the originals were 105C. I suppose the answer lies in the answer to this: Has anyone had to re-replace the Radio Shack capacitors because they also eventually failed?<br /><br /> Thanks for the informative blog!TorqueMasternoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2706167928714146937.post-42694603554878031552011-02-25T22:59:55.856-05:002011-02-25T22:59:55.856-05:00I had the same problems listed above.
